1、 复合从句: 从句按其在复合句中的作用,分为主语从句、表 语从句、宾语从句、定语从句和状语从句等。一、主语从句:在句子中充当句子主语的从句叫主语从句。位于谓语动词之前。通常由 that,whether 以及疑问连词引导。一般情况下, 常用 it 替代主语从句,而将主语从句移到句尾。如:Who will be our new teacher havent been deciede yet. 二、表语从句:在句子中作连系动词的表语的从句,它位于主句中的系动词之后。例如:That is why he did not come to school yesterday. / It is because
2、you are so clever.三、宾语从句:在句子中作及物动词或介词的宾语。基本形式:(主句)连词 +从句主语+从句谓语+. 关于宾语 从句连词的 选择:若从句来源于一个陈述句,那么,连词用 that,在口语中 that 可以省略;They believe that the computer will finally take the place of human beings.(他们相信计算机终将代替人类。)若从句来源于一个一般疑问句,连词则用 if 或 whether;I wonder whether I should say something for him to the hea
3、dmaster. (我不知道是不是该为他在校长跟前说点什么。)若从句来源于一个特殊疑问句,则连词就是疑问词(what,who,where,when 等)例如: (从句本来就是陈述句)He asked me where he could get such medicine. (他问我在哪儿能搞到那样的药。) 宾语从句的 时态问题 :如果主句是现在时,从句则用现在某一时态, 甚至可以用过去时;如主句是过去时,从句则相应地使用过去某一时态,遇到客观真理时仍然用现在时。如:I think I will do better in English this term. (我想本学期我的英语会学得好点。)
4、/ The teacher asked the boy if the earth is round. (老师问那个男孩地球是不是圆的。) 下列结构后面的从句一般也作为宾语从句看待:be sorry / afraid / sure / glad +that 从句,如:Im sorry Im late. (对不起,我迟到了。) / Im afraid he isnt in at the moment. (恐怕他此刻不在家。)四、定语从句:在复合句中作定语用修饰句子中某一名词或代词的从句叫定语从句。 定语从句的位置:放在名词或代词的后面。如:The man who has an umbrella i
5、n his hand is my uncle. (手上抓了一把雨伞的人是我的叔叔。 ) 语法术语 的改变:被修 饰的名词或代词称为先行 词;引导定语从句的连接词称为关系词,其中 that、which、who 称为关系代词,where、when 、how 称为关系副词。五、状语从句:在复合句中作状语,其位置可以在主句前或主句后。状 语从句可以分为时间、地点、原因、目的、结果、比较、 让步、条件等几种。状语从句由从属连接词引导。1、时间状语 从句通常由 when ,as ,while, after, before, since, as soon as ,since, till (until), w
6、hile, whenever 等引导。 时间状语从句一般放在句首或句尾, 特别注意,时间状语从句不允许使用将来时,而应该用现在时替代。如: When you finish the work, you may go out to play with Sam. (你完成工作就可以出去和 Jim 一起玩了。 )2、地点状语 从句通常由 where, wherever 等引导。如:Go back where you came from! (哪里来还滚到哪里去! )3、原因状 语从句 通常由 because, since, as 等引导, 一般放在句首或句尾。如:He went abroad becau
7、se his father had found a good university for him. (他出国了,因为他父亲给他找了一所好大学。 ) 4、目的状语 从句通常由 so that., so.hat., in order that. 等引导, 往往放在句尾,从句中通常含有 can / could / may / might 等情态动词。如:He got up earlier so that he could catch the first train. (他起身更早为的是赶上第一班车。)5、结果状语 从句通常由 so that., so.that. 等引 导,放在句尾。结果状语从句一
8、般表示已经发生的事情,故多为过去时态。如:He lost so many bikes that he decided never to buy a new one.(他丢 了那么多辆自行车,他决定再也不买新车了。) 注意 1、because 与 so;(al)though 与 but;if 与 so 不可以同在一个句子中成对出现。2、时间 、条件、原因,让步状 语从句放在句首时需要用逗号与主句隔开。11.17【练习】1、请分析下面句子是何种复合从句。1、When we should start is still a question. 2、We think that answer is cor
